Quebec Underground 1962-1972 – Tome: 1 •	INTRODUCTION -- Yves Robillard. o	had a lot of various material stemming from several different disciplines, decided to document past decade and publish everything. o	put this book together in two months o	doesn’t claim to critically analyse anything but claims to at least have made future historical analysis possible o	book divided into five parts: •	Les Pionniers •	Les Groupes •	Les Illustrateurs •	Les “Lone Rangers” •	Les Critiques o	Claims most important part of the book to be “Les Groupes” o	“Les Groupes” is the most important part of the book, contextually speaking, because group work among artists was characteristic of the historical period, having previously always worked individually. These artists’ collaborations and collectives came together to define themselves, in search of a greater sense of belonging and identity. o	What characterizes the decade from1962-1972, is precisely this stronger sense of Quebecois identity. o	Interested specifically in the role of the artist as history evolves.
